Yes we are the only team never to have been in a play off in any division. Rochdales promotion to Division One 2 seasons ago means we are the only team in any of the four divisions not to have had a top six finish in the last 40 years.
Its worrying really, during the premiership days, weren't we the fifth longest serving top flight team. I don't know, but we must be close to that achievement in the Championship. Perhaps we could aim to do that in all four divisions. It's worth thinking about as a goal, it'd be attainable and more importantly cheap!
Yes we should have made a promotion bid in the prevailing 10 years at some point. So yes we have under achieved.
That does not rest solely with SISU. The previous incumbents have all shared that responsibility!

We were the 4th longest serving team in top flight. Arsenal, Everton and Liverpool were there longer. Liverpool were up there longer by a couple of seasons longer if I remember right. Man U got relegated after we went up but went back up the next season I think.
